[linuxjobs] Data Centre Engineer: £16-20k , Manchester

[Andy Smith]

----- Forwarded message from Matthew Bloch <matthew at bytemark.co.uk> -----

Bytemark Hosting are one of the UK's leading internet service providers; we're 
looking for a data centre engineer to join our busy data centre team for 5 
days a week in Hulme, Manchester.

You'll be deploying and fixing servers both directly for customers, and 
internal teams. You'll get to build, debug and troubleshoot a range of 
hardware, and fulfil Bytemark's promise to "build by hand". We really care 
about the parts that go into our servers, build quality, testing regime - and 
you should too.

Our ideal candidate, will love building PCs, and want to build and deploy lots 
of them, every day. You will probably want to glue them together into gigantic 
networks, and be interested to learn how that's done. You may even have a 
partner who complains about Cat5 trip hazards or inexplicable whirring noises 
in your house.

You'll need to be able to talk sweetly to our customers, set up billing for 
their services, and help them spot basic hardware problems. You'll need to 
schedule work for them, make your own promises, and stick to them.

If you know about Linux, TCP/IP configuration, or even IPv6 that would be 
amazing but not essential.

Hours: 37.5 hours per week, usually to be worked 9-5ish Monday to Friday by 
negotiation with our Data Centre Manager.

Salary: £16000-20000p.a. depending on experience.

Location: Hulme, Manchester

Benefits: 25 days annual holiday (not including bank holidays, and +1 day for 
every full year served, to a maximum of 32), free broadband, eye care 
allowance, free pension advice and access to your own pension fund. We do have 
a policy of allowing home working but we don't anticipate it would be 
applicable to this hands-on role.

To apply please email matthew at bytemark.co.uk with your C.V. - tell us a little 
bit about yourself.

RECRUITERS: you are welcome to forward us candidates for this role, but by 
doing so, you will agree to a fixed £500 fee. Do not contact us if your fee is 
any higher, as we will use any information you send us on this assumption, and 
will not agree to any other terms.

Thanks,

--
